The Santa Fe River goes underground in O'Leno State Park and reemerges 3 miles away in River Rise Preserve State Park as a circular pool before resuming its journey to the Suwannee River.
Surrounded by quiet woods and huge trees, anglers can spend a relaxing afternoon fishing on the river. Hiking and wildlife viewing are also favorite pastimes for park visitors.
Equestrians, hikers and fat-tire cyclists can explore over 35 miles of trails. Equestrians can end the day camping overnight at the park's primitive equestrian camp consisting of primitive campsites, a bathhouse, and a 20-stall horse barn available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Located on U.S. 27 just outside of High Springs.
